Hello Everyone
As you know Ben's Friends is growing, changing, improving and asking for feedback from our dedicated member's. We have just recently shared the results of the survey that was done on how Ben Friends impacts your life, we were extremely proud of the results, and thank you to all the members who participated in the survey.
However, it did get us to wondering what we could do to make the communities even stronger. So, if you could share 2 things that you would like to see on your support group, we'd be grateful and we'll try to make them happen! You can share your ideas with us in the Comments. :)
Please feel free to give us a little detail with your suggestions. Some ideas could work for some communities and not others, that's fine. We have a wonderful group of people who all are striving for the same goal and I am sure the suggestions you will provide us with will be as exciting as all the new changes that are happening in our future.
Thanks again for taking the time to make us even stronger!

I love this support group, is the best I have found in five years. If I could change anything it would be more members....perhaps some way to recruit members would be cool. I love to hear from diverse people.
The second thing is leads for conversations...for example perhaps featured members could think of new topics to keep the conversations fresh.
Greqt suggestions Simo. One way of finding new members is to post the link tot he community on Facebook and Twitter. Lot's of people find us that way. And if you can spread the word, it really helps!
